ponco,
If the smaller reticle is one of mine, then it is sized to 200m for a Bf109. When I first posted my bright reticles I thought the N-9 type sight was range adjustable so I offered a resized reticle for 200m convergence settings in addition to the 100m stock size. Later I learned the N-9 was not adjustable (see quote below) so I removed the 200m reticle sizes.
Therefore, I believe the 200m size was a mistake on my part and is not historically accurate.
Unfortunaltely, the N-9 was not adjustable. From USAAF T.O. No. 1F-51D-1 dated 15 July 1952, Pg. 61

Quote:FIRING GUNS WITH N-9 SIGHT INSTALLED.
Since the N-9 sight is a noncomputing reflex type with .
a fixed reticle, no control is provided other than the
rheostat for reticle brilliance. The principle of operation
is the apparent projection of the reticle image in
space, which is similar to having the reticle image
superimposed on the target. When the target is framed
by the reticle, the guns may be fired by depressing the
trigger on the control grip.
